Both my dad and father in law are in their element at the moment, the snooker as entered its second week, much to pleasure of males of the households, but to the disgust of the females.

I don’t watch the snooker myself, however saying that I have just watched Ronnie O Sullivan score the maximum 147, you have to admire the skill of these players, I have tried to play the game, my maximum break being about one.

At least this summer we won’t have to suffer the humiliation of England failing again in the football, because we have already been through it. So it’s only the cricket where we will have the chance to show just how bad we have become at sport.

I forgot we have the Olympics later this year, we should produce our usual performance do well at boxing, sailing, rowing and a few of the other minor sports but in the major events we will under perform as usual, and then we blame the weather for being too hot or the pollution in Beijing.

Sorry for being cynical, but that’s the way this country is at the moment.
